What are some of the most unusual and bizarre ways people have died?

[FizixFreak]

I'm sorry, but you're wrong about me in this; I suspect I've seen more and nastier things than you think. I'd be happy to give it up in favor of the ignorance you ascribe to me however. I don't know of any way to explain beyond what I have... you don't laugh at the dead, you laugh at DEATH. I'd add, all death is natural, it's just that some are not preferable. I think perhaps you haven't had much experience with death, and I'm glad for that too.




I never claimed to be a nice person; in fact, I've claimed much the opposite. I'm noting how you're writing however; nearly a stream of consciousness... kind of a rant. This is obviously either a very personally emotional issue for you, or you have so little experience with death that you just don't understand. We're human FizxFreak... you know what a nurse or doctor is going to say when you finally die some day? "He **** the bed." It's practically a term of art in medicine... do you think it means that doctors and nurses find death amusing?

Death will eventually put us all in our place, but until then we get to try and do the same; you may also note that I am not referencing any ACTUAL deaths, although I'm not sure you care to understand why. I am sorry that you've found this so upsetting, but I'd urge you to consider for a while... maybe talk to Lacy33 on this one.

You probably might have seen worst i have been lucky in that case thank goodness but the thing is that i can't really change you thoughts on this topic and you cannot change mine i might not find your views very good but a little wicked to some extent but what can i do about it?

Different people have different opinions and if don't respect a mans opinion you should it doesn't really mean that you shouldn't respect the man him self i do agree with a lot of things you say but i am highly disturbed by the fact that people are posting the information about horrific deaths in a sense of competition(and you cannot deny that) i just cannot accept it as anything normal may be all these people are very good individuals in their lives but even if they have such wicked thoughts it really disturbs me but you know what these arguments are really not going to lead us anywhere(and by the way who is lacy).

Forget about all this let's lighten the mood i just cannot get your cute little friend out of my head even though i have never seen her:!) how is she doing by the way? and are you really sure that she wouldn't be interested in a young handsome man like me? you probably are not cool enough and it is alright if you are not good looking its not a big deal but i think i really think i can make her like men

You can calm down, and realize that time is going to eventually change your views. Some things are inevitable, and this is the Most inevitable of all. We're all riding the thermodynamic arrow of time to oblivion. That's harsh... you have to find ways to cope, and people who have dealt with a lot of death find that you need to laugh. It's not something that is easily explained, which is why it's usual hidden.

People are complex, with many facets. I just lost a friend to a recurrence of breast cancer which metastasized horribly. She died badly, leaving a daughter and husband, and she was young enough that it's a damned tragedy. I'm not laughing about that, but I do need to laugh at SOME point; not at her, but at death itself. Is this a competition? Sure... it's very cathartic.

Lacy33 is a member here, and a fine teacher, including expertise in thanatology and nursing (on her profile). I have experience, but not enough to convey this to you properly... I believe she might. Beyond that... and here's the key... where is the wickedness? I'm not trying to bust your balls here, I just want you to reflect on your reaction. I think it's primarily emotional, and then you have justifications after the fact. That's very VERY normal, but you can go beyond that; you're no fool. So.. wickedness... is anyone wishing harm upon good people? In a way... we all want to die well, and we all fear a bad death. How do you overcome fear?... exposure.

Is it NICE?... no. Is it necessary?... Yes. The alternative is the kind of emotional turmoil I'm seeing in your post. That's not a criticism, just an observation... and I'm not being coy, if I want to criticize, you'll know it. I don't think your mind will be changed by this, but it could be a seed that grows when the conditions are right.

She is still adorable, but also very happily in a relationship with another lovely lady. They're quite happy!

Consider this... you have a powerful imagination... that's GOOD, but it can lock you in your own mind. Sometimes we need to step out of that, and really listen to what others are saying. Do you think most of the people posting this are wicked? If not, then we have a dilemma; I'm willing to discuss this as much as you want.

That said, you're still never getting a chance with her, so keep that imagination... as guys, we really do need that.

Have a dream where you are dead and you couldn't wake up, but then you realize you are dead...

If you're dead (brain no worky), how would it be possible for you you realize anything?

 

[nismaratwork]

Radiation Poisoning.

Hepatic Failure.

Suicide.

Isn't it obvious? Zombie!

Hello FizixFreak, I am Lacy. I am an old lady. A grandma. I have little hair, wrinkled skin and am very very fat. I am crabby and I like it that way.
I was a person who studied to be with people when they die and after, providing they died in a hospital or at home.
Dying can be many things. It is not pleasent for people around. It does not have to be unpleasent for the person dying.
Unless one of the mentors can come in and clear this thread of all the playfull gore and direct the conversation in a proper discussion on death and dying, then it should be closed.
Death is very real to a lot of people now.
Death means different things to people now.
Some people are willing to die for a cause and others are taught and follow a different style of living and dying.
I really think this needs to be watched.
Too many young people today are saying they are willing to die for something.
I personally do not hold to that not to say it is right or not.
Death is very real and final. In this thread it is being played with.

Death gets us in the end, it seems only fair to play with the old man before then. Still... if you agree with Fizix... I need to rethink my stance.

... you don't laugh at the dead, you laugh at DEATH.

I agree with nismaratwork. In fact, I'll go a bit further. We should not only laugh at death, we should taunt it. But not with either Vietnamese rap music or French mime techniques (and certainly not at the same time) or anything by Yoko Ono. That might really piss it off.

I don't know whether to laugh... or laugh and feel guilty. Ooops... the latter.

The thread has run it's course.
